Wickham: We Dominated The Game

Connor Wickham collected the post-match man of the match award having played a major part with assists in three of the goals after the side came from behind to collect maximum points at Selhurst Park.

"It wasn't the ideal start but I think that kick-started us as we knew we had to get ourselves back in the game and we did it in the best way possible. By half-time we were in control of the game and dominated to get the three points."

After a frustrating time with his injury, the striker is delighted to be back out competing in the top flight.

"I am really pleased to be back out playing and getting back to full fitness. I felt a lot better in this one than I did against Sunderland and I take each day as it comes in training, working as hard as I can. I would like to start scoring again sooner rather than later but looking back at the end of 90 minutes we have won the game. scored five goals and everyone has a great feeling.

Connor wanted to give special mention to the wing play of Yannick Bolasie and Wilfried Zaha and believes they can be a vital part of the club's success.

"It is brilliant to play with the pace we have in our side with both the wingers in particular and we need to utulise that in games to our advantage and hopefully that will give us some good results."
